Lasagna!

ive been dwelling to update de blog.... but it seems there no enough time for me... classes to attend and asgment due around the corner making me miserable sometimes... hehe... but its no xcuse for not updating.... 

ive done this dish last week & a week b4 tht.... my sis keep bugging me to do more... saying its not enough for everybody (yea rite... there's only 5 of us).... for me, lasagna is a combination of pasta n the sauce.. very easy to make... & i can ensure u cant get enough of it....

Obedient  ingredient:
lasagna sheets... ( im using 20cm x10cm  casserole so i would need around 4 sheets)

Tomato sauce
125 g tomato puree
2 fresh tomatos
4 cloves of garlic
1large onion
200g mince meat ( u can change to ur preference,  can used chicken, lamb, or even turkey)
1 bay leaves

Béchamel sauce
well this one is very easy.... all u need is same amount of butter and flour. ( eg. 1 cup butter - 1 cup butter).
1 cup of milk

Cheese
any type of cheese.... cheddar would do.

hw you do it ......

chop garlic & onion..... if its so troublesome.... just used ur chopper / food processor. then saute them until they turn brown. add in mince meat. chop fresh tomato then add them in. stir evenly.next put in ur tomato puree & bay leaves.keep on stirring until it is boil. let it boil for another 5 minutes... then it is done. let it cool.

in other pan, melt butter and add in flour. keep stirring. it will coagulate. when this happen, add in milk. stir until u got smooth consistency. let it cool.

pasta sheets need to be boil for 2 minutes.

so the resemblance time.... fun!

1st layer in ur casserole is the sheets, the top with tomato sauce. on top of  tomato sauce is the Béchamel sauce. and lastly cheese. keep layering ur lasagna until u finish ur lasagna sheets. but make sure that the layer doesn't exceed the casserole.

taken from Wiki.... not the exact size... but same method.

then, baked it at 190 C for 20 minutes. u'll know its done when u see the top cheese layer melted and brown.





let it cool down for 10 minutes, cut n serve!



Bon Appétit...............
